"You take the Breath right out of me And left a hole where my heart should be..." I did not have a father or anyone to make sure I didn't make mistakes or control where I stay or how I live like Amelie did. I mean sure, I didn't know her father, but at the end of the day, I missed having one. I couldn't not remember what my own father had been like, if he'd been like me or not or if he'd been controlling or funny or wild or anything really. All I knew was that parts of my old life only came to me in my dreams. That's all I knew. My age, and where I came from. A place called Earthen. Wherever that was. Whatever that was. It sounded like a planet but I wasn't exactly an alien so it couldn't have been a planet. Could it? I look at her with consideration and she closes her eyes and imagines my home. I smile. The gesture is nice but I can't help but think to myself that her view was of how it used to be, not how it was now. Now it was a place of destruction, of broken hope. Only the strength of the pack kept it together. I sighed softly to myself as she said it sounded perfect. I wish I could tell her that it was, it was great and she should come for a swim in the lake, for a walk through the forest, for dinner with the pack, as a friend of course, but in my head it does not sound as appealing. Because it isn't. "The Lab isn't how it used to be darlin'. I wish it was and as you say, it will get better. I just miss it how it was." I look down and sigh again before meeting her gaze. I see the slight scowl darkening her pretty features and for a moment I feel sheepish. I didn't mean it to sound patronising, or offensive, nor sexist or anything. I just had a better sense of smell was all. Might make it easier for two hungry people. I chuckle as she says I can have most of it. In all fairness, I could hunt later once she'd gone to try find something more substancial. Right now, what I could smell was more fruitlike than meatlike. "I didn't mean that offensively Amelie, I'm sorry. I just have a very good sense of smell that might help." I smile. "I'm sure there will be enough to go around." I see the smile return to her face and I reach out my arm for her to link if she would like so that we could begin to look for something. It was a little while off yet by the smells of things, but it would be nice to have a walk and learn more about her. If she wanted to open up of course. "You've got to fight just to make it through Cause I will be the death of You." |
